I thought this was a great film, very stylish. I also loved the "romantic thriller" element of the film as well as the snappy dialogue. What are some similar films, from any time period, that are close to this one? Someone recommended The Tourist and while I can definitely see why, I thought that was a horrible film. It certainly wants to be Charade, but it falls way short.
share"The 39 Steps"(1935), if you can find a decent print. It's Hitchkock's best, and Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll have the chemistry to match Grant and Hepburn.
shareThis movie seems to have a similar style to "The Pink Panther" from the same year, and of course, music by the same composer.

Jim Hutton: talented gorgeous hot hunk; adorable as ElleryQueen; SEXIEST ACTOR EVER
Blindfold (1965)
Catch Me a Spy (1972)
Foul Play (1978)
Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (1978)
Romancing the Stone (1984)
To catch A Thief, Arabesque, Gambit, How to Steal a Million, Caprice, are all films which I have enjoyed which I think have things in common with Charade - suspence, romance, plot twists, hot leading men.
